Proud to see these 3 Beautiful machines flying for our country. Personally know one of the Captains that flew in that formation that day. Quality Shot | |
Very lucky shot, very lucky!!!!!!!!!!! | |
Beautiful pic . These are all A340's as A330 only has 2 engines. | |
Five stars for the catch of the day. To the visitor from the United States... Those two aircraft following the Star Alliance A346 are Airbus A342s (the little brother of the A346), not A330s. The A340, no matter what version you talk about, has four engines; the A330 has only two. You probably confused the CFM56-5s on the A343s with the RR Trents used on the A330. | |
Great photo, and also there is only one a340 the rest are a330's. This is for the people who said "3 a340's" | |
Original and dificult to see !! | |
I Love it!!!! | |
The formation is as great as the weather is bad. 5* | |
TCAS must be screaming its head off!! | |
Great formation | |
Amazing Picture! 5***** | |
Great formation, great shot man! | |
The Air Controller started to scream and kick the computer. "IT'S WRONG. THIS COMPUTER IS MARKIN' 3 ACFT IN SAME POINT" | |
Amazing formation!!! | |
Three a340s in one now thats a good shot | |
Not very crisp but... did they disable their TCASs for this shot? :) | |
No words 5***** | |

Very nice!Fantastik shot... | |
I love it. T.B. | |
The south african airways always have such flying formations i love it | |
Amazing picture! I have never seen A340s flying formation!!! GREAT | |
Love it! hope to see this when I go to South Africa! :-) | |
Dal Bianco caught the exact moment when the three planes were perfectly positioned in relation to each other. In close formation with no overlapping from the viewpoint of the camera ... terrfic! | |
Wow nice one! The A340 is just awesome! | |
I am a pilot myself, it is truly amazing to see this formation, go the A 340 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! | |
A340 x 3 = Wow | |
The length of the A346 is just...amazing! | |
Howzit Carlo. Great shot man. You couldn't see me from there, but I could see YOU from up there!!!! (To the other reading this, I was in the A342 on the other side. ZS-SLB) From your fellow airliners.net photographer Stephan Rossouw | |
Not everyday you see 3 A340 flying TOGETHER | |
The A340 is just the most amazing plane. It looks even better in that picture. | |
3/3 airbus = 5/5 stars | |
It was one Airbus and two Boeing last year, lol...Anyway, nice shot!!! | |
Very sad they didn't include a 747 this time. | |
Wow! What a difference from the integration of Swiss on Friday 7th April in Zurich! I assisted at their ceremony. We remained inside an old hangar throughout the event... and the cocktail that followed was lousy! | |
3 heavies in one picture! I love the A340...5***** of course! | |
South African's stunning livery with airbus' sleek A340 - what a combination. Add to that a delta formation and what you get is truely awesome | |
Awesome!!! These guys did a test flight on Saturday the 08 April 2006. Passed over me while I was flying over JNB CBD... Amazing!!! | |
Awesome, what a great sight! Go a34x! | |
Amazing capture. I really think that the bad weather allow the dark clouds to blend in with the planes, no? Well shot, not many oppurtunities like this come in a lifetime. | |
It's great to see Star Alliance arrive in Africa! This has been a long time coming... | |
They did it again! Whooho! Excellent! | |
Very nice! | |
Its Amazing to see a group of Large Commercial Aircraft doing a Flypast together.Guess since its so rare makes things more interesting. Looks wonderful.Great pic. regds MEL | |
Despite the low cloud cover, well exposed, and composed ! | |
Wonderful! A340-6xx is the most beautiful bird in the skies, but I've never seen a "flock" of them. | |
Welcome to the Star Alliance SAA from you're partners here at NZ | |
Great shot shame the weather was foul. would have been better if it was 3 744 | |
How did they do that for all 3 A340 in the air and it doesn't see happen with them. Excellent Shot, Carlo! | |
If they would have added a couple of 747-400's on the flanks, it would really have been something else. Nevertheless an awesome pic. | |
It's amazing to see big planes doing this. Congratulations for the pilots!!!. | |
Looks beautiful... If only blue skies. | |
Cool pic! I always like South Africa, been there 5 times... | |
Reminds me of the early days of jet travel, A340's look like the modern day 707s and you can't get a more classy livery than SAA's. | |
Incredible! How do they do this?!? | |
Too bad the weather wasnt up for it :) | |
Us South Africans sure know how to celebrate, even though I disagree with this partnership! | |
Airbus and SAA at their best!! | |
